Experience Maine from an authentic 1846 coastal farmhouse!
Comfortably equipped for all seasons, this four-bedroom cape is located in a peaceful and unspoiled Downeast setting just a short distance from Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park, Ellsworth, Blue Hill, hospital, airport, etc. A pleasant blend of yesterday's charm and today's conveniences enhance the grace of this vintage home. The Moore House is spacious enough to comfortably accomodate larger families, folks attending family reunions,weddings and holidays, friends vacationing together, etc., yet cozy enough for less. A large yard with perennial gardens, a BBQ area and a pond are just a few of the unlimited recreational opportunities on site.
A short meadow road leads to our private, gravel beach that gently slopes into the ocean -perfect for children to make their oceanside discoveries. From here, you can set out from our own shorefront to hike and fish along Maine's wild rocky shore. Or, canoe and kayak to explore nearby coastal islands and village harbors, watch lobstermen fish their traps, and discover abundant wildlife on land and sea. Picnic and sunbathe on our own secluded vista enjoying nature and the moods of the sea at an unhurried pace. Or take a nature walk on our 50 acres of private, prime Maine woods to the heath that beholds beavers, birds, wildlife and plants unique to Maine's pristine freshwaters.Identify native plants,or pick unsprayed blueberries along the way if they are ripe!
The Moore House is located 1/2 mile off of US Rte 1 in the coastal village of Steuben, 25 miles east of Ellsworth. An easy stroll from the house will take you to the village square, where you will find the town library, church, and grammar school with playground. A local convience store is 1/4 mile fron the square. Milbridge is the closest larger town - 7 miles east.
